Thanksgiving Blog Hop

Welcome to the Thanksgiving Blog Hop, where we are celebrating Thanksgiving and being Thankful for Family, Friends, Freedom and Food. If you just happened to stop by my blog and would like to start back at the beginning of the hop, please click here and you'll go back to Amy

We have a long line up of a lot of talented girls for this 2 day event, that's right, 2 days, so make sure you come back tomorrow for a new round of projects from everyone!

Now if you came over from Scrappidy Ashy
you are in the right place. Isn't her blog amazing?

Ok, enough talk for now, I'll get to my project! :) I chose to do a flower bouquet for today's project.

I used my gypsy and several Cricut cartridges for this project, and there is no rhyme or reason for the way I put the flowers together, I just cut a bunch of layers, inked, embossed and sanded and added them together.

Here is a list of the carts that I did use:

Celebrate with Flourish - for the "giving Thanks"

Lacy Labels - for the base that the words are on

the flowers came from a collection of the following carts:

Straight from the nest

Forever young

Songbird (I hid the letters using my gypsy)

Paisley

Accent Essentials

Ok, now for the blog candy. I am very close to 100 followers, and if I make it during this hop I will add something special. But for now the original candy ....

a Cricut Cartridge...

but I'm not telling you what one until tomorrow! If you come back tomorrow and leave another comment you will get 2 chances to win!

Now, I'm done for today, your next stop is Looney Bug Designs. I can't wait to see what wonderful project she has for us today!
